The boat is high sided and the ladder is a bitch. 12? LMAO! 8, maybe 10. But it has a new engine at last and no longer smokes, is fast and the skipper is very very good. Getting your kit on and off is a pain at low tide.
There are some very good wrecks visited from here including the Bretagne (on of Divernet's top dives), Peronne, Lord Stuart, Empress of India etc etc. The website usually lists up and coming dives.

Good news for Techies is that they are running deeper, more techy dives over the winter.
Vis is variable - with strong Easterlies you will be lucky to see much (1 to 3m?) but even then, sometimes you just get lucky... They also run a rib.
Despite my opening comments, I like the place and there is some good diving to be done from there.
HTH
